Hyderabad: Believe it. A plate of idli, dosa, puri and vada is available at Rs 10 in several places in the city. In what can be termed as a new trend, many eating joints have started offering short eats for Rs 10. How is it possible for owners to offer at such low price we ask?
Shafi, owner of one such stall at Narayanguda says, “We make up in volumes. After the Rs 5 meal scheme was launched by the government, the daily wage labourers were benefitted. That is when I decided to offer tiffins at Rs 10 and Rs 15.” At Marredpally and Neredmet too there are stalls that offer a plate of short eats for Rs 10. Several marketing executives and others stop at these joints to grab a quick bite. Bharath Kumar, a student says, “Everyone can afford it.
It is a no-frills place and one can just finish having food and leave within minutes. The service too is fast.” While the Rs 5 meal scheme is popular but not all have food at these centres. People do not mind having food Near Sudershan theatre –Rs 15 for all tiffins screams a board. Yadav, a regular to the centre says, “It suits me. If I were to go to a restaurant, I would have to shell out Rs 40 or even more for a dosa.”
